Maintain Translate Values

You use the Maintain Translate Values interface to maintain the values in the translate table. If it's allowed by site security administrators, power users can now learn to add their own pick lists (translate values) to an application.

Select PeopleTools, and then Utilities, and then Administration, and then Maintain Translate Values and search for a Field Name to access the Maintain Translate Values page.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the maintain translate values page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.
